This federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey's National Geological and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (CFDA 15.814) provides $216,980 to the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI) to organize, catalog, geospatially locate, and make publicly available the agency's historic assay records.

The key deliverables include: 1) an updated version of the Mineral Information Layer for Oregon (MILO) database with an additional 10,000 historic assay records from DOGAMI's Baker City field office, 2) updates to the MILO web map and web service with the new assay data, 3) creation of federal metadata standards-compliant documentation for the MILO data, and 4) a final technical report. This project builds on DOGAMI's FY23 efforts to geospatially organize and publish 15,405 historic assay records, further expanding public access to this legacy geological information to support mineral resource evaluation, geologic mapping, and natural hazard assessment in Oregon.
